Diabetes UK, the UK’s leading national charity for people living with and affected by diabetes, has teamed up with Healthcare Professionals to provide advice in English, Urdu and Sylheti, to support you in making the right decision about whether or not to fast in this holy month.

Our advice is culturally tailored, acknowledging the difficult decision that thousands of Muslims have to make about whether they should fast, and the impact of this if they are living with a long term condition such as diabetes.

Also included is advice on small changes that you can make to your food throughout Ramadan and beyond, to help you and your family have a healthier Ramadan.
